JOSEPH BRUNNER OF ROTHENSTEIN, SCHIFFERSTADT, AND FREDERICK An attractive, professionally type-set, printed, and bound hard-cover (cloth) 6 x 9-inch book of 600 pages. Limited number printed. Published 1991. EVERY NAME INDEXED-approximately 8,000 entries. Over three decades of research including author's personal inspection of many primary records in the United States, Germany, and Switzerland dating from the 1400's, some of which are not available to the Mormons for microfilming. All sources are referenced. Although this is the author's second book about the Brun(n)ers and associated families, Joseph Brunner ofRothenstein, Shifferstadt, and Frederick duplicates very little of the information in his 1968 book, Knowing the Bruners. The two books are companion volumes. The 1963 book included virtually all of the descendants of Samuel Bruner (1808-1886) whereas this second book includes only post-1968 information on Samuel's descendants that has come to the author's attention. Contains a wealth of information that was unknown to the writer in 1968, much of which is here published for the first time: Joseph Brunner's baptism and confirmation; a few generations of his paternal ancestry and seven generations of his maternal line; records of Jacob Storm/Storm's (1701-1757) two marriages and descendants of his thirteen children; and information on related Gait, Saur, and Strihi families. Included is a five-generation (at places, less, at others, more) genealogy of Joseph (1678-1752+) and his descendants, separate chapters being devoted to the lines of each of Joseph's sons and daughters. Descending genealogies of the brothers and sister of Samuel Bruner (1808-1886): Daniel (1790-1878), Peter (17911850), George (1793-1562), Jacob (1795-1880), John (1795-1846), Henry (1800-1875), Elizabeth (1802-1882) who married a Ziler and a Golliday, David (1804-1881), and Joseph (1811-1864). The chapter for Samuel includes ancestry, mostly Jeffries, of his wife, Catherine (Briggs) Bruner. Joseph Asbury Bruner s (1820-1891) letters and private journals. Excerpted here are the more interesting of his experiences and thoughts, including all that involve Brun(n)er genealogy. Asbury was a Methodist minister of the last century in Ohio, Kentucky, and principally California. He even tells about his visits with General Sutler, the pioneer who struck gold in California. Several other Brun(n)er letters including one from the California gold rush in 1849. Questions about a mystery P. Peter Bronco who appears to be a son of George Peter Brun(n)er (1766-1834), but, if so, he was a posthumous child with a mother other than Catharine (Sinn) Brunner. Information on associated Frederick County, Maryland families of Thomas, Sinn, and Zimmerman News of relics brought on the ships to the New World by the Brunner, Sturm, and Zimmerman families.
